Track list

Comments

  • "Mind Drive" goes back to a song idea that was played by the band XYZ, (Chris Squire, Alan White and Jimmy Page ) already in 1981, and one known as Instrumental #. A similar rhythm pattern could also be heard in the Bill Bruford and Alan White on the ' Union' Tour (1991-1992) played drums duet.
  • That, is did deals with gangs, drugs and violent crime, unusual topics for Yes
  • "Children of Light" had already been recorded for the album Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe, but then not be published. Anderson had already written it in the late 1970s. In the eighties it had been intended for a Jon & Vangelis album, which was, however, not been established. The song first appeared on Keys to Ascension 2 Rick Wakeman Intro " Lightning" was extinguished shortly before the release and until the re-release of the song on Keystudio. (2001) has been restored. Instead, here is missing the introduction that had the song there.
